Re: Share your xmonad desktop!

Hey here's my five minutes of "shame" It is mostly "stolen" from real coders as i'm not that good, but nevertheless I'v put it toghetter by myself. I'm shure there are better ways to do it and I am looking forward to suggestions.I like to use as much space as possible so I just have a tiny dock(actualy made from three parts). First is from xmonad.hs and it shows workspaces with icons and also it outputs window-title. Next one is just buttons to controll my mpd. and the last one is conky with mpd song info, ethernet, wireless, clock, cpu usage and AC power state + battery. Volume, wireless and battery icons are changing according to the system states(volume 5 different startes, wireless 5 and battery 10). I know it is a bit too much...but I had too much time.xmonad.hs

Got some awesome status bar applets working.

ANIMATED GIF!!!

These were taken a little before those status applets were written...

CleanBusy

As you can see, they save me quite a bit of status bar real estate, and allow me to display more then would fit on that bar. They also consume less CPU since I can poll for updates once every 5 seconds instead of constantly updating CPU / MEM / etc...

Re: Share your xmonad desktop!

1) Having my windows separated like that is easier for me to read with such a small font2) Using such a small font, programs rarely take up any more terminal width then that3) I use 3 layouts: 1 with one window centered, 1 with gaps like that, 1 with no gaps, 1 fullscreen. I find it more intuitive to set up this "zoom" method based on what i'm doing in that workspace.Relavent part of xmonad.hs

I really love it. Great job! What do you use for compositing?

Thanks! Compton, the fork of xcompmgr that is actually updated. I only really use it when i'm taking a screenshot to pretty up the corners and such

compton -cCfb -D 3.5

For those of you skeptical about the mouse, I assure you I have all of those scripts bound to alt+F1-F7 for easy keyboard action

Re: Share your xmonad desktop!

Slowly getting towards a desktop setup I'm happy with.Xmonad, xmobar and trayer.Scratchpad for "quake console"Terminal: urxvt and tmuxMozilla Firefox with Pentadactylirssi with bitlbee for Facebook, GTalk, MSN and Skypemopidy and ncmpcpp for Spotifyvim with spf-13 as base and wombat256 colorscheme

I'm trying to harmonize my life by moving everything save the browser to the terminal and having vi style keybindings everywhere. Biggest thing left to solve if possible is shared paste buffer between tmux sessions and other apps if possible.
